It's alright, but I'd like to see another option or two.
I prefer the current image — banter is heavily implied, and the focus is clear and all. I find it hard to make out the guns in the suggstion.
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.How is the banter implied? I'm not familiar with the work, so all I see is a Mexican Standoff. It could be completely silent, for all I know.
I don't like the mismatched panel sizes. Plus, it's cluttered. Not a fan of the Sluggy Freelance.
Rhymes with "Protracted."Agree that current is weak.
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.I can't even tell those SF guys are on opposite sides. They look like they're both shooting at the same people.
Not a fan of either the current or the suggestion, especially not the suggestion. As mentioned above, it's much too crowded, plus the example seems to be a spoiler (just going by the fact that the example on the page contains one, so I might be off about this). Keep Until Better Image Suggested
For now, the best I could come up with was a screencap◊ of the Family Guy example. At least this one clearly shows one of the characters talking. The conversation is "Maybe we should get new roommates. — Maybe we should." which could work as a caption. That being said, a more serious example would be better I think.

please don't capitalize my handle. I just don't like it.From the Secret Six example...this may not be legible enough.

while the text could be bigger, the content of their speech bubbles isn't really important here. I like it. If you want to do something about the legibility, maybe you could cut the last panel and then the other two on the bottom could be bigger?

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.Heh...barring rodney's take on the first one, I like the Mood Whiplash of that.
v Original (w/o border): [1]◊

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.I like that. Not to be too nitpicky, but could you slap on a few black pixels as a frame? I like it when comic book images have them.
edit: thanks! I vote 14 with border.

please don't capitalize my handle. I just don't like it.Bump; anyone else? I think I prefer the 2-panel version (12.3).
edited 30th Jul '12 2:43:42 PM by Willbyr
I prefer 14 because 12.3 has a slight difference in art style between the two panels, but it's no big deal.
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.Vote for 14.
Clock is set. Crowner?
14 gets everything across in one panel, while highlighting some of the absurdity of the situation. I like that one.
Moon◊I can live with 14.
Another vote for #14.
Check out my fanfiction!Another vote or two for 14 and we can run with it.
Let's go with 14.
"@[=g3,8d]&fbb=-q]/hk%fg"Good enough; it's up, potholed and tagged. Add a caption if you'd like. Locking up.
The current image does not illustrate the trope, as it does not convey the dialogue is taking place. That's why I've made a new one.. It's from Sluggy Freelance, and shows an expository conversation occurring in the middle of a Mexican Standoff. Can I replace the old image with it? Comparison (current above, suggestion below):
